July 7

It was sunny today, I aired my quilt and compress it.
So, my bed became larger than before and not hot.

And today is July 7.
It is the day of the Star Festival.

I used to make a lot of Star Festival decorations when I was a little girl.
My grandfather took a big bamboo from nearby forest. Then I decorated.
But Star Festival is August 7 in Kagoshima.

My grandfather always floated the bamboo after Star Festival.
I thought it was common, but it was unusual. Everyone burned it.
I knew that recently.
My grandfather said that it is wasteful to burn it, so he brings it to river.
I think it was troublesome. People say “Don’t throw trash in the river.”
It is a bulky waste, not to mention waste.
I think it couldn’t float. It is too big to float.
And nobody stopped him… Oh, my family! Why did not stop him? 

Can I see Milky Way tonight?☆
